Reviews
Praise for Into the Real: ""The disturbing realism is balanced by dangerous monsters, clever tactics, explosive action, and a compelling twist at the end . . . immersive, highly technical near-future sf; perfect for dedicated gamers or for fans of Ernest Cline's Ready Player One."" --Library Journal ""I found myself enjoying the story and Raven's relationship with the AI that's her guide in the game, and I was invested throughout. It wasn't so much a coming-of-age story as a growing into and appreciating one's own skin . . . I'm really looking forward to how things will play out from here."" --The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction ""Ringo and Sherrer have created a modern day Ender's Game using the technology of Pokémon Go . . . The characters are vivid and interesting, and the action is strong enought to carry you away."" --Upstream Reviews ""The futuristic world of the gamers and the game itself will interest sf readers. . . . Teens will relate to Lynn, the main character, and if they are gamers, they will enjoy her gamer and VR adventures."" --Booklist Praise for Lydia Sherrer: ""Lydia writes with wit and charm--snappy dialogue and a warmth that makes the unreal feel familiar and close to hand. I always smile while reading her books."" --Terry Maggert, author of Backyard Starship and The Messenger ""Lydia brings her characters to life in breathtaking fashion. Once you pick up her book, it is almost impossible to set down."" --Jason Cordova, author and editor of Chicks in Tank Tops and the Kin Wars series Praise for John Ringo: "". . . the thinking reader's zombie novel . . . Ringo fleshes out his theme with convincing details . . . the proceedings become oddly plausible."" --Publishers Weekly on Under a Graveyard Sky ""[Ringo's work is] peopled with three-dimensional characters and spiced with personal drama as well as tactical finesse."" --Library Journal ""Explosive . . . fans . . . will appreciate Ringo's lively narrative and flavorful characters."" --Publishers Weekly "". . . practically impossible not to read in one sitting . . . exceedingly impressive . . . executed with skill, verve, and wit."" --Booklist ""Crackerjack storytelling."" --Starlog
